The Tear Garden

The Tear Garden, the experimental industrial project featuring Edward Ka-Spel of The Legendary Pink Dots and cEvin Key of Skinny Puppy, is playing a rare show. This is an opportunity to hear their unique blend of psychedelic, electronic, and darkwave sounds live, a style they've cultivated across several albums since the mid-80s. Expect a set that draws from their extensive catalog, showcasing their collaborative approach to genre-bending music. This CONCERT takes place on Thursday, October 1, 2026, at the Middle East Downstairs in Cambridge, MA. The Downstairs room is a familiar spot for alternative and industrial acts, offering a tight, direct atmosphere. Fans of both The Legendary Pink Dots and Skinny Puppy, or anyone interested in the foundational sounds of experimental dark electronic music, will likely find this a compelling evening.
